We (me and my wife) stayed here 1 night in a small tent near the pendant bridge. During 1 day we were hiking along special roots. Nature is very beautiful. There are several special places where we could burn a fire in special places and prepare food. We liked it very much!

I did two hikes during last weekend, every for around 12 kilometers in different parts of park and the nature was amazing. Blueberries, raspberries, mushrooms, moss and everything in nice forest between lakes. And even some hills to hike.

Just few hundred meters from the main entrance, one already finds itself from true nature. Still the easy and well maintained paths takes the exlorer multiple kilometers deeper to the untouched nature. If one is looking for wilder nature, the park continues still a lot further than where the maintained path network reaches.

We stayed for two days, one night, canoeing around the Repovesi NP. Beautiful park, very good facilities. We rented a canoe from Kuutin Kolo (www.kuutinkolo.fi) which is a small and friendly company. Canoeing was easy even for a first-timer like me, though the motor boats could have been less within the park.

The park has plenty of trails, of course, most of the time demanding due to ascent and descent. In particular Katajavuori, as well as Mustalamminvuori's tower opens the spectacular scenery in a national park. For children the most memorable was the Lapinsalmi suspension bridge and Määkijäniemi ferry. Fire places are located at nice places, for example Kuutinkanava. There is plenty of shelters, a sandy swimming beach, a few campfire site, as well as space for camping.

One of Finland's National Parks to enjoy real nature and peace. There are pathways to go, you don't get lost! You can make your own fire to fry sausages and to have some rest with you and your friends. You can sometimes see wild animals, at least a lot of birds there.

A very good training are for hiking or water sports in Finland. Just a 2-3 hours drive from the capital Helsinki, Lapinsalmi is a good starting point for a 2 day hike. There are many campfire sites with plenty of wood and an axe, water is good after boiling. And there are 4 wells in the National Park, so cold drinking water is also no problem.Most of the tracks are small, so you are only disturbed by other hikers. But some tracks and campfires are for bicycles and longer staying climbers, so a little more busy. But overall, still a very good start for a longer vacation in Finland.

Nice place for hiking. Recommended paths are marked, there are "picnic areas" with firewood supply and roasters. Highlights: 1. Suspension bridge at Lapinsalmi entrance. 2. Hand-driven ferry3. Timber-rafting channel
